 * I’ve been curious about this for a while so I thought I’d ask. How come on some
   WP blogs when you hover over the comment link it has #respond at the end of the
   url but others have #comment?
 * Also, would anyone know if my theme (based on the default theme and customized
   by me) could be responsible for my posts being all screwed on my technorati profile?
   I have 2 posts (new blog although I’ve been doing this for years) and at technorati
   it shows each twice. Neither one displays an excerpt below the title but instead
   shows the title again in plain text and the date. It also indexed the “about 
   me” blurb I had on my sidebar as if it were a post even though I manually typed
   it in the sidebar.php.
 * PS: Is it necessary to include the post id in the index, search, etc php files
   of the theme?

 * The anchor links `#respond` takes you directly to the Comment Form where you 
   can write a comment on that post. So if you want to write a comment now, go to
   that link `yoursite.com/yourpost/#respond`
 * `#comment` takes you to the first comment that has already been posted (for if
   you want to read comments, then perhaps write one)
